Fill-a-Backpack - Uplift Family Services

Believe it or not, we here at Uplift Family Services are already thinking about the new academic year, and we want to make sure every child in our care in Santa Clara County is prepared for the start of school with everything they need to focus on their studies.  That means a new backpack and school supplies, new shoes, and a hygiene kit for those families that can’t afford to provide one for their kids.  Thank you for all your past support, and I hope you, your family and friends would like to be involved again this year.  We will need a limited number of volunteers for both days (about 5 for each) here in Los Gatos, please let me know asap if you would like to come.  This is a perfect project for kids and teens of all ages.  Here are the dates:

August 8 Thursday morning and afternoon:  Backpack tagging, supply unpackaging, assembly line setup ( about 3 hours) 

August 9 Friday afternoon:  Backpack stuffing and distribution (about 2 hours)   Around 1:00 for both.
